This is an update to my original NHTSA complaint submitted on May 5, 2025 (complaint number 11658852), regarding a complete electrical failure in a 2024 Cadillac Lyriq. While parked in a garage, the vehicle experienced a full shutdowna”rendering all systems inoperable, including the door locks and windows. Most alarmingly, a [XXX] child was trapped in the back seat due to the doors being electronically locked and unresponsive. The dealership has since diagnosed the failure as a cable routed improperly near the steering column that had rubbed against a component and snapped. This severed connection resulted in the complete loss of vehicle power and emergency functions. Since that time, I have discovered multiple similar reports from other Lyriq owners online describing full system shutdowns, locked doors, and failures to starta”many of which are shared on public forums such as Reddit [XXX] ). This suggests that this may not be an isolated case but rather a potential systemic defect in the Lyriq’s wiring harness design or electrical architecture. I am extremely concerned that this failure mode could occur while driving, particularly at highway speeds, and would result in loss of steering, braking assist, and emergency exit options. I urge the NHTSA to investigate this issue further to determine whether a recall or manufacturer communication is appropriate. This vehicle is currently with the dealership, and I have refused delivery until GM provides formal safety assurances.
